Reading SVSSS: Chapter 21
Tumblr media
For those who don't know, I am reading SVSSS for the first time and sharing my thoughts!
If you have not read it, there will be spoilers! Consider this a warning.
Also- if you want to follow along, I am aiming to post updates daily. You can find all the posts in the tag bloopitynoot reads SVSSS. You can also check out the intro post for context on my read.
Tumblr media
The last chapter of the story?!?!?!
I will be continuing my notes into the extras-already decided when I started book 1. Once those extras are done though,- pls pls pls I will accept any fanfic recs. I am absolutely ready to get lost in the sauce for the next several months. Send me your absolute favs! I will read the shit out of them.
Today I am back on my tea- this is a lady grey latte :'3
LET'S GOOOOO
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh man. Thank fuck Shan Qinghua is okay, but Tianlang-jun is looking REAL rough. p272
Not snake boy! him too! p274
Mobei-Jun coming in to save his man 👏 Get it! p276
This story is so annoying. The "big bad" was never even evil. The man just wanted to hang out in the human realm, read poetry, and vibe but the humans were the ones being awful. This story was driven by nonsense the entire time at least in MMDZS the fake evil one was still being orchestrated by an actual evil one. This was just a bunch of fuckery and racism. p277
LOL when I read the big "fight" I was thinking- that's it? Literally all this build up for the fastest fight?? Then two paragraphs later SQQ also said "that's it?"p279 I really do feel bad for Tianlang-jun. He was done so dirty in this. (I do want a buttload of fanfic where he get's a better life and also works to actively set his son up LOL Tianlang-jun biggest Bingqiu shipper).
I still cannot get over that Zhuzhi-lang's mother straight up fucked a snake. p280
Why did this reveal have to be worse :((((( The fact that LBH's mom actually likely cared for Tianlang-jun but was imprisoned by the OPM, was too late to get to Tianlang-jun, and forced to drink poison. :((( uuuuuuuugh. p282-283
Holy shit! Luo Binghe is the one who is actually powering the realm merge!!! p286
Baby Luo Binghe this behaviour is so toxic :'( p289-291
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Are you kidding me. :( Why Yue Qingyuan!!! Xuan Su actively drains his life force whenever he uses it. p296
and we get the reveal that Yue Qingyuan was the pal who promised to come back and save Shen Jiu. uuuugh my heart, why am I so emotional about this. p297
The most bittersweet system notifications rn, so upsetting. Bro is about to lose the only things he's grown to care about in this second life and they are just listing achievements for what pp298-299
I know Yue Qingyuan is in a bad way but I really am rooting for him. Good on SQQ for not giving YQY his last wish. I need this softy to pull through. p301
Oh no! BInghe is hallucinating now :(((((( the sword has totally fucked him with demonic qi. :((( p307
I always love when we get a scenario pusher- it really "pushes" SQQ's boundaries p307
OMG. Well. That's not a small scenario pusher!!!! What is it with MXTX always having her male protags fuck dry 🤮🤮 This is not cute, and I totally understand it is a "fuck or die" scenario but omg RIP SQQ's asshole. How is this both kind of tender and absolutely horrific :((((((( 🤮🤮 pp310-311
This is actually so terrible :( my heart what the fuck :( Luo Binghe reached out, wanting to touch him but also not daring to. His hand remained frozen in midair as he muttered, "Shi...zun?" Once he heard Luo Binghe call him "Shizun" as normal, Shen Qingqiu seemed to come alive, and he gasped in a breath. Unfortunately, due to how strained this breath was, it almost sounded like a sob. Luo Binghe was stunned, "Shizun...what...What did I do?" p314
aaaaand the Jade Guanyin :(((((((( p315
Bless the system for getting me out of the choke hold that this scene had me in. I truly thought everyone was about to die. pp318-320
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm dead LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL I clocked it many chapters ago with my jokes that SQQ was actually changing the genre and was really the bawdy love interest. He really did though XD ahahahaha p323
Thank fuck everyone (at least LBH and SQQ) are alive! I thought they would have killed LBH afterwards or with the state of his mental health, he would kill himself but thankfully he is not dead. p327
YAY! We have Yue Qingyuan alive as well! p329
Incredible. Shen Qinghua wanted this ending as well but decided to sell out for finances. Bless that this guy got to see his favorable ending play out LOL p333
oh!!! Tianlang-jun is also alive!! p335
My heart! SQQ to LBH " Of course what this master most wanted to see first was you!" p339
We hit the end of the main story!
Some final thoughts- that felt really abrupt. Like it just ended very fast. These two really have a strange relationship (I am sure more happens in the extras but as is stands it is still so ambiguous). Nary a real declaration of love, and their intimate moments were all fabricated by other situations or a product of deceit. I am excited to dig into the extras to see more about their relationship.

Nova’s Thoughts - Dracula Daily - August 24
In which Mina and Jonathan are reunited at last!!!
Even if Lucy wasn’t eager to hear everything (and I’m sure she is) I am!!! Tell me everything bestie!!!
The way Mina can *immediately* see the toll Dracula has taken on Jonathan…. :(
That being said, I love that Mina knows Jonathan remembers more than he lets on, that he’s keeping it from her in part to protect her and in part to protect himself. Again, she’s so smart!
Sister Agatha is the ultimate shipper for this couple: “hey girl I can’t tell you what he’s been through *but* he didn’t cheat :)” QUEEN 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Mina: “as if I would be jealous! That’s silly. But also thank you that helps”
I really do feel like Jonathan’s head spinning is due to something more than just it being overwhelming for him…leftover influence from Dracula, perhaps?
I love that he trusts her enough to let her read the book if she wants to — this is one of my favorite parts of their romance <3333333
Plus he even puts a caveat in place for her to tell him what’s in it even though he refuses to talk about it right now!!! I don’t know why that part sticks with me, but it does :)
My blorbos got married!!!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 congrats to them 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
Him being firm and strong in his words while he’s weak physically while she’s almost unable to speak from crying and is ok physically! I love the contrast of this 😭😭😭😭😭
“oh, Lucy, it is the first time I have written the words 'my husband'” — I seem to recall a certain diary entry that says otherwise, but I think she means the first time she’s written this with Jonathan as her husband. I refuse to believe Mina hasn’t written “my husband” about Jonathan several times in her diary margins :D
And now my *other* favorite part of this entry — the wedding present. Mina “returning” the notebook to Jonathan and sealing it with wax and her wedding ring is so 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶 AHHHHH! I just love it because it’s a sign of trust for them!!!! She’s letting him know she won’t open it without him knowing about it (something he likely was worried about, but didn’t show for her sake). Plus, she promises not to open it unless she absolutely has to, despite her obvious curiosity (she is studying journalism, after all and the situation does involve 💕her husband💕)
The fact he was going to even tell her a part of his past just to show her how much he appreciated the present (but couldn’t)…DRACULA WHEN I CATCH YOU—
Emotions aside, I wonder what he was going to share with her? Shaving mirror incident? The lizard climb down the castle? Something more dark? I feel like he would’ve shared something medium bad — not too horrifying, but bad enough to justify a shock. It’s pretty bad that I can’t obviously guess which incident he could share because there are *so* many to choose from here :(
Their pledge sealed with a kiss 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
HER PARAGRAPH TO LUCY IS UNBELIEVABLY SAD. NO I WILL NOT EXPLAIN
Speaking of Lucy…
Wanting to write everything down to be closer to Mina :(((((
Yeah something is still very wrong here. Lucy shouldn’t be having dreams or feeling worn out!
Arthur is sad too :(((( he knows something is wrong with Lucy! She’s usually so cheerful and in this short diary entry, she just seems…depressed
I’m sorry Mina can’t be there to keep you safe Lucy 😭😭😭 and I don’t know how much help your mom can be…

Well like thousands of other theatre fans around the world I tuned in for, in my opinion, THE streaming event of the year last night and what a treat it was. I’m going to ramble and gush for several paragraphs so please bear with me…
What can I say about “Vanya” and Andrew’s performance that hasn’t been said before? I particularly love how they cleverly gave each character a ‘thing’ or quirk to help the audience identify who is speaking. I mean all the different accents he does are impressive - real dramatic Irish ‘mammy’ type voices for Liam and Elizabeth down to a more friendly, sedate middle Ireland lilt for Micheal and a small vulnerable, somewhat broken voice for Alexander. And of course Helena’s posh English accent blew my mind too. But I’m talking about a physical attribute or habit - a bouncing ball for Michael for instance, or Ivan’s use of his sunglasses. Subtle but works brilliantly 👏
Then there are the facial expressions which Andrew is just so good at. In theatre particularly they make such an impact when you can fill a period of silence with a facial expression and it says a thousand words. He is just outstanding in this field. And not just in the comedy moments - he could make me die laughing and shatter my heart equally with a single facial expression, and I know I’m not on my own when I say that.
I read the screenplay beforehand a couple of times and I’m glad I did as it did help to know which scene we were at and which key moments were about to occur. However there were still new things I picked up whilst watching it. Like it hadn’t become clear to me until last night that (spoiler alert!) Sonia was in unrequited love with Michael (a man clearly much older than her as insinuated in the script) - only that HE harboured feelings for someone he shouldn’t…
And I guess I can’t not touch on THAT scene between Helena and Michael 🔥 How the holy hell does one man play two people giving in to their desires and make it look believable? Well, if you’re Andrew Scott, you take off your shirt and start humping the floor and a closed door I guess! 🤭 (Not even gonna lie when I say I’ve thought about that scene an unhealthy amount of times! 😂). And then seeing Ivan’s shocked expression when he walks in on them holding the flowers 🤣 Absolutely frigging brilliant!
I would recommend everyone watch this once at the very least… I will obviously watch it a few more times as with most things you always pick up new details. It was undoubtedly a brave, experimental thing they decided to do last year without knowing how it was going to turn out but kudos to the whole team for putting together something so brilliantly surreal 👏
(I can’t say much about “People, Places and Things” atm as the NTAH platform crashed about two thirds of the way through it and they had to start the whole stream over. I took to doing something else rather than rewatch 75 minutes of something I’d just watched - and then fell asleep! So I haven’t seen the last part. I will come back with my thoughts on that one when I’ve watched the bit I missed!)

Texting HC for the boys
Wind - Uses discord way more than text. Commonly mutes chats. He gets a million discord messages from different groups and he can't be bothered to listen to every time someone complains about the mountain of dishes he left in the sink. If you really want to reach Wind you have to jump on discord or go to his room.
Twilight - Doesn’t like to send more than one message in a row because someone called him desperate one (1) time in high school and he never recovered. So instead he’ll send you a whole paragraph and agonize if he forgot to mention something. Everyone’s told him its fine to send literally a million texts in a row but Twi can’t get over it.
Warriors - Will 🙌 ironically 😎 text 📲 like ❤️ this 👏. But only when he wants to be annoying. Otherwise he’s fine and he can use emojis like hieroglyphics if he wants and he’s able to make himself very clear with just an eggplant emoji and a raised brow emoji.
Wild - Commonly texts the wrong chat and confuses the hell out of people. Accidentally forgets his phone in the other room and doesn’t see people’s messages until its several hours too late btu still texts them back like “oops sorry just saw this man” as if they didn’t know. Uses emojis liberally and goes on tangents and makes everyone forget what they were talking about. The people love hearing from him, but its hard to stay on topic when Wild is in the group chat.
Champion - Full words, no abbreviations. Will straight up send you an “acknowledged” instead of an “ok” to let you know he read your message. Never uses emojis. Ever. The one time Warriors did convince Champ to send a thumbs up emoji to Sky instead of “affirmative”, Sky almost broke down the dormitory door because he thought Champion had gotten kidnapped and was sending a coded cry for help.
Legend - Spams the fuck out of everyones phone when he’s pissed, which is a lot of the time. Doens’t give a shit what group text he’s in he’ll fucking send you an essay one sentance at a time cursing Sky out for eating the last of his goddamn breadpudding.
Hyrule - Never responds on time. He’s always busy and in a rush so when he reads a text and it doesn’t say something like “help i got shanked and now my liver is flopping around on the ground like a beached fish” then he’ll promptly forget what he just read. At the end of the day he might flip through his messages to check what he missed but normally he relies on Legend to fill him in on anything important.
Sky - Forgets which group chats hold which roommates so he’s the guy who will start a new chat every time he has a question. Has basically every permutation of group chats possible and yet will still find a way to make more. And he gives them names like “get milk” and “hairdryer?” so you never know whos in the group chat at a glance. It’s impossible to find anything. Plus, he sends texts half-asleep that mean nothing when he gets woken up too early.
Four - His texts are inconsistent as hell. Sometimes its emoji hell, sometimes it’s MLA essay format. But two things are always consistent: you can always detect the sarcasm and he’ll turn on his read receipts just to let you know he left you on read.
Time - Texts in full sentences but overall is a normal texter. But he types with his pointer finger with two hands so his real crime is being old.
Dark - When he got put away texting was in its infancy so he texts like “G8 C u L8r” and “ur 2 much”. The first time he texts Time after he gets out Time feels his soul vaporized by the blast from the past. Thankfully it only takes Dark one text to Shadow before the boy is physically showing up outside Dark's door to bring him into this century.
Shadow - Spams dumbass videos and memes like his life depends on it. His job is a lot of waiting around so he’s got time to kill and you Will receive messages from him at 39 mph (memes per hour).

"Oh, Alicent avoids looking at Rhaenys 🥺"
And
"The last time she actually set eyes on her was when she escaped King's Landing during Aegon's crowning. When Alicent stepped in front of him.. closing her eyes as if she thought Rhaenys actually capable of burning them, of burning her... it's secretly haunted her ever since, that she thought her capable of that, and now here she is. And still, she won't look at her :("
^^ Okay, first of all, OW OW OUCHIE!?, and secondly, I'm going through this mornings posts, and I swear I see even more heartbreak-post breakup- enemies to lovers to enemies again-but still in love-drama-angst between Rhaenys x Alicent in the chained beneath the waves tag than rhaenicents ask for in canon. And I love it 😂😭 I feel like I'm reading the morning newspaper while sipping my coffee and scrolling through right now, lol. That gets me 😭 ^^^ because what weaknesses that whole paragraph invokes in both of these ladies. 👏 Rhaenys is absolutely horrified that Alicent actually thought her capable of burning her and still haunted by the memory, even more so because she was upset Ali thought her capable of burning her children during the coronation, and then she ended up in a situation where she truly did have to, it eating her up, and Alicent is afraid to face the visible proof of Rhaenys and her boys having to fight, the scars on her body forever a reminder, just like Aegons.... refusing to face the scars on her body, forever a reminder to Ali that it wouldn't have happened to either if the succession hadn't been usurped and challenged... They're going THROUGH IT.
I'm so glad you like reading through them , it is like our very own book club at the moment with all these talented anons xxx
Its a vicious cycle and Alicent will soon ask to retire to her chambers and she does not want visitors.
Not that it would stop Rhaenys but she gives her space, for now

honestly like going through your asks i agree sm how underwhelming heroes of olympus was. like in the og series there was so much death, betrayal, and character development and in hoo we see percy and annabeth in tartarus (which i felt like their disappearance should have had waayy more of an affect on the rest of crew but without annbeth as their leader and percy as their glue how are they serving) and Nico's forced coming out ceremony (poor boy was tamazatized by cupid and ric didn't even delve into much more after that?).
gaea was so underwhleming and i don't belive at all that she could have been beaten after she was fully formed. like there was no actual counter against a primordial and percy and annabeth only defeated luke bcuz he killed himselves. like i don't think celestial bronze can actually do enough damage to kill a god, yet alone the earth! (divine weapons be looking a little enticing here) and at least with kronos their was a personal connection. like i get that she tried to kill the people in the prophecy like with leo but i felt like it was so long ago leo had already comes terms with his mom's death. there was no emotional charge that should have been there and the romans vs greeks was so disappointing. i didn;t like at all that the greeks were good and the romans were evil and i felt like jason was to easily accepting within greek ranks. like yeah i get it, greep camp is more chill but their was no promised internal hostility and it just felt like their big battle wasn;t that big of a mutal battle, just greeks tryan stop another invasion. and don;t get me started on the athena statue. that was written SO weird and it definitely should have been established way earlier in the series. and poor nico and reyna tryna haul it across the world when they could have contributed much more. their perspectives was such a snooze-fest and i was just like what the hell is this side-quest?
like the second series was more mature and professional writing wise so i expected much more blood and gore. every demigod was a tragedy is the og series so it was so weird to see everyone live happily ever after after. and like i felt like he forgot how to create chemistry after percbeth. like japer??? was lacking like any flavor and hazel and leo had more chemistry than frank. like frank and hazel could have been such a good sable couple if they were written better. and the foced interactions with the mini-quests in the books were so awkward. rick should have created so much more interactions with each other or killed them off if he couldn't manage that many characters.
YES 👏 YOU 👏 GET 👏 IT
heroes of olympus honestly seemed so... poorly planned to me? like with pjo, a lot of plot points connected so well together whereas hoo was a mess and i genuinely think the amount of main characters was what rick had a lot of trouble with.
the first two books, the lost hero and the son of neptune were actually pretty good and that's because both books strictly focused on just three characters and three povs each. but then when the seven finally joined, things went downhill 😭
the last book was super disappointing. the seven + gods vs the gigantes went by really quickly and most of the "fighting" was just a paragraph or two of each battle. as for the gaea battle.... yeah 💀 i think it would've been cooler if the demigods (roman and greek) worked alongside the gods to take gaea down since, like it was mentioned many times before, that gaea would've been hard af to beat once she formed 💀
A DETAILED TEAM UP OF THE DEMIGODS FIGHTING ALONGSIDE THEIR GODLY PARENT??? POSEIDON AND PERCY SQUARING UP??? ZEUS AND JASON????? ANNABETH AND ATHENA???? I WOULD'VE LOVED THAT!!! 😩 (i definitely believe athena would be nagging her daughter throughout the whole fight about how she still doesn't approve of her boyfriend and annabeth is just "omg moooom 🙄 focus on the battle!!!)
octavian could've been better written too! it was clear that he was supposed to be the "luke" of the second series with gaea as "kronos", but his death was meh to me unlike with luke who i genuinely felt bad for especially since his reasons made sense. octavian... i didn't feel any sympathy for.
rick's favoritism for piper was also an issue for me too, especially as i grew older and out of my 'not like other girls' phase 😭
pls im just hoping that if hoo gets made into a tv show too, that there's MAJOR changes to it 🙏

I think the Dave slander stems from him defending/supporting Polly’s avid racism and Zionism (not to mention her weird obsession with rog and fighting his stans on twitter). A lot of people don’t “stan” him anymore since then so I suppose ppl just pick on him on here because he’s kind of a loser 😬
BUT ANYONE WHOS SLANDERING NICK I HOPE YOU STEP IN A WET PUDDLE WITH SOCKS ON AND HAVE TO BE STUCK WITH IT ALL DAY!!! 😡😡😡
posting this as a not a confession for reasons. Also, THAT LAST PARAGRAPH. YOU SAY IT, ANON! 👏

so very fucking proud of Larian and all the work they put into BG3 but also so incredibly proud of Neil and the fact that the heart and soul he put into his character got to be recognized and appreciated last night. I could honestly write paragraphs worth of how I connect to his character personally, how I see so much of my own struggles and hurt reflected in Astarion, but we ain't got time for that. I am just so fuckin happy that this character, who is so special to so many people, got to have this spotlight. Kudos, Larian 👏

This episode of Cinema Therapy gives me so many Zelda feelings.
So many points here are lessons she learns on her way to her Elder Verse, in which she is the true embodiment of wisdom (the Uncle Iroh of Hyrule, if you will.)
It’s the importance of choosing peace. Choosing gratitude. Choosing happiness.
The choice not to be defined by your mistakes but to learn from them and share your wisdom.
You get one life, and you’re the one who steers the ship: so steer it in a direction that brings you joy.
Everyone’s behavior makes sense to them. Everyone’s perspective makes sense to them. And if you have enough humility to say, “Help me see what you’re thinking and why you’re doing what you’re doing, help me to see through your eyes so that I can not only understand you, but also learn and grow myself. That is how bridges are built.
This paragraph here is SUCH a big moment in Zelda’s character arc because this is what she does. This is her tonal-shift moment with Link. Where she stops, reflects on her actions, decides they aren’t fair, apologizes, and then works on getting to know his perspective.
Her journal entry literally says—
Tumblr media
“I always believed him to be simply a gifted person who had never faced a day of hardship. How wrong I was...
Everyone has struggles that go unseen by the world... I was so absorbed with my own problems, I failed to see his.
I wish to talk with him more and to see what lies beneath those calm waters, to hear him speak freely and openly...
And perhaps I, too, will be able to bare my soul to him and share the demons that have plagued me all these years.”
Zelda’s cognitive behavior therapy in which she “shifts of way of thinking to experience joy and peace.” She doesn’t want to be 100 years into the future in BOTW. She doesn’t want 99% of her loved ones to be dead and her only home in ruins. It’s not a great situation, and she could dwell on the failures of it (and sometimes she does think about that) but ultimately, her reaction is—
“I believe in my heart that if we all work together, we can restore Hyrule to its former glory. Perhaps…even beyond.” Democracy, you say?
“I can no longer hear the voice inside the sword. I suppose it would make sense if my power had dwindled over the last 100 years....I'm surprised to admit it...but I can accept that. "
Tumblr media
She’s focusing on what she can control, what actions she can take, and choosing to find peace, happiness, and acceptance in this new life.
This episode mentions “people who aren’t happy until they’re satisfied,” which means they are never happy, because satisfaction is a constantly moving goal post. And this is Zelda to a T. It’s still her even in this new state of shifted perspectives and understanding, but she’s on her long, long journey out of it.
Also, Carl Roger’s on, “What people need is to feel loved and accepted. So we can address problematic behaviors or thinking patterns that aren’t serving you, but what you need to know is that you have worth and that you’re loved.”
BOOM. What a mic drop moment. This is precisely what Zelda needs and it’s what she learns to give as she gets older. There’s hints of it now. The episode goes on to mention that Iroh can always find something positive to give a genuine compliment, and Zelda’s much the same. As harsh as she is on herself, she can see so many factors of what make other people and she can appreciate their strengths, even if it’s not one that’s initially obvious.
“The pursuit of perfection is exhausting and you’re never going to get there.” Read that again, Zelda. “The pursuit of connection can also be exhausting, but you can get there…and once you achieve it, it will be replenishing.”
Yes 👏 Yes 👏 Yes 👏
Tumblr media
“We’re happy to give help because we feel powerful and virtuous when we’re helping others…but accepting help is harder because we feel weak…if that’s true, then we’re all weak, and we can just accept that. But there is no weakness in needing help. Everybody does. And being able to ask for it, or accept it when it’s offered is a virtue. It’s not a vice. It’s a strength.”
The way that this could be a direct quote from Zelda herself…my HEART.
I have basically quoted this entire episode but it’s heckin’ great and I recommend watching it. I’ll be here sitting in my Zelda feels. 😂

So I saw the results of the character poll and I would like to voice my support of Noah as the all time GOAT of the Goldencomet-verse
Ik Peter won, and don't get me wrong, I love Peter, but maybe he's a bit too much of an asshole. Like, he doesn't catch enough retribution for his actions and Benji is kinda forced to deal with it and it's played off as a joke. Sure, Benji flings enough insults to make a French man laugh, but none of them are really taken seriously by anyone (especially that dress scene. That was wrong and no one ever apologized in the slightest, even Peter). I need some retribution and I need some W's for me to ride or die for a ship.
That all being said, that's one of the reasons why I LOVE Noah (and Ali). Noah, while being super introverted (from what I've seen), he's still not taking shit from anyone. AND ALI RESPECTS IT 👏👏. I like myself a relationship built off of genuine pure-bred respect. That's why I love enemies to lovers or rivals to lovers (even though idk if YWIMC counts as either. Could be wrong tho). Most of the time in those two tropes, the romance stems from genuine (although begrudging) RESPECT. And respect and pity are two different things. 'Aw poor *insert character here*' also isn't a good relationship foundation. If the relationship isn't built off of long-standing respect of the 'I see you as my equal' caliber, I don't want it.
I would also like to voice my love for Noah in a separate paragraph, cause I kinda just yapped about the relationship lol. Noah, as I mentioned, doesn't take shit from NOBODY. 'Introverted' sure as hell doesn't mean pushover when it comes to Noah. And, for every ounce of not taking shit, there's an equal amount of softness towards those he loves. You need an equal balance for a delicious romance and he does it perfectly 🤌🤌. I also like that, while he isn't the strongest physically, he's still not a pathetic mop of a character. He earns his wins through his own means and HE DESERVES IT. Even when he has help, he's not the ever constant damsel in distress waiting for his big strong boyfriend to save him. He does something, he tries his best, and I respect him for it.
And i would like to end this with saying I love Peter Hart, even though ik it sounded like I was hating lol. It was a really fun read and funny a lot of times. Ig getting away with assholery just strikes a sore spot 😂
One last side note: I will definitely be reading YWIMC when it comes out if you can't tell (and also sorry for the rant)
I am absolutely in love with this post!! Thank you so much for making it!! Don’t ever feel bad for voicing an opinion of my characters! In fact, I am so happy to see Noah get some genuine love!! This post gave me the goofiest smile and I appreciate you making it 💛✨
Noah has a soft spot in my own heart because of his jaded “front,” but he’s not afraid to let his vulnerability show….ESPECIALLY around Ali. Noah has trouble expressing his emotions due to his ASD, so seeing him make genuine wins and setting firm boundaries with people make us go, “YES! Don’t take shit from anyone! 👏 👏 👏”
One of the main themes of YWIMC is stepping outside of comfort zones and letting rigid barriers fall (in Noah’s case) whereas the lesson that Ali learns is that you can love someone regardless of your upbringing, and to eventually get over fears of attachment.
Seeing so much love for Noah is genuinely heartwarming, and I thank you so much for making this ask! 💫
(And Peter is such an asshole lmao. Entertaining, but an asshole nonetheless. This is a totally valid criticism of his character 😂✨)

finished tgcf book 1 and here are some random thoughts i had through the book and certain passages that i kept rereading:
xie lian with sincerity: "if you pray to me for good luck, i think you might actually get cursed instead"
he actually ascended after 800 years of collecting scraps??? what. it took me until like the end of the novel to realise that wasn't joke and actually real what. what.
he's so pathetic meow meow i cant wait to see him cry and break my heart into itty bitty goey pieces (currently reading book 3 and im in hell now)
mu qing: passive aggressively bitching at xie lian
xie lian with sincerity: who are you?
he's really just murphy's law on embarrassment but at least everyone else is getting dragged into the pit he made (too bad he's right there next to them, falling flat on his cute face)
first arc flash review:
nan feng and fu yao are instantly obvious like i'd be more shocked if its revealed theyre actually not feng xin and mu qing but it's really really funny seeing them fall into pits one after another
wow that bridal sedan scene is so heart fluttering i think i reread each paragraph like 3 times
goddamn what a fucking ml introduction 👏👏
holy shit people actually die in this??? i was expecting the cannon fodder because he was just so fucking annoying but that woman too? damn that's just so sad
pei xiu meeting xie lian here is just retrospectively as embarassing as the second time
also very nice foreshadowing and setting up of themes
second arc flash review:
they just meet like that????
the donghua made it so obvious but even in the book, you can tell hua cheng was just desperately restraining himself whenever xie lian did some freaky flirty shit
he's such a sweet ml, i'm already foreseeing so much fucking suffering to counteract this blissfulness
dni curtain
i can't believe hua cheng just upped and left to get a tattoo AND make a brand new door after seeing the dni curtain
xie lian is so lax about things, its almost concerning like i get why feng xin and mu qing- i mean nan feng and fu yao are "?!?!?!?!" at him sksksk
i gasped at the venom sucking part, like audible breath and everything, holy fuck
also cute detail about how hua cheng disinfected his blade with nan feng's fire and how both of them did that with implicit understanding
honestly i did not foresee the general being xie lian and had to reread that passage again after finding out. so embarassing for him. i close my eyes. but also hua cheng making everyone kowtow to the grave is just that much sweeter
xie lian does not restrain himself with the skinship at all. he immediately becomes embarrassed afterwards yeah but he always instinctively wants to touch hua cheng sooo badly. like how tf is hua cheng still alive - no wait i guess it's because he's dead that's why.
"does it matter if you're human or not?" XIE LIAN YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT TO HUA CHENG (AND ME)
LMAO nan feng running away when he heard xie lian offer to cook and then running back in to give hua cheng the stink eye and xie lian a warning only to leave again is just so funny, i was soo sad to not see that part in the donghua ver
last part and ending thoughts:
"your highness" ugngnnghhhngnn
the whole conversation between them and their upfrontness with each other is just so refreshing
im suprised they resolved this mystery so quickly, like i was expecting another arc or even a whole more book to dance around this but nope. xie lian says one "hua cheng" and then bam it's in the open.
donghua made xie lian full grab xie lian's face while it was a poke in the book but i approve of both versions, all very cute, all very likely to make hua cheng fall in love even more
awww he has to leave? ohmygod ringringring
and yep thats my thoughts so far
i read the whole book and then watched the donghua btw!! i'm not an "anime first" girlie, im a "the manga was better" loser tryhard always
also i just read all of book 3 by the time i finished writting this so lmao

HELLO @elphabaoftheopera ! i hope youre doing well! ive arrived with more lfay thoughts and some analysis!!!!!!!! 🥳
READING THOUGHTS:
im so, so glad i rereading lfay, it is honestly such an awesome fic and the writing so amazing! personally, since this was kind of my first time reading through the entire thing without multiple day breaks, i was definitely able to pick up on less obvious details (which are compiled below!) that made everything so much better!!! i genuinely felt like i was experiencing the story again for the first time, which made me able to appreciate and become engaged with the more emotional scenes and chapters! some of my favourites of these include chapter 23 (i was evidently moved enough to leave a comment mid read 😅😅), chapter 28 and chapter 34.
for sister sunrise, the description of elphaba reflecting over her room for the last time really got me :') the paragraph was written super beautifully and after going through most of the story i reallyy felt the nostalgic and sentimental aspect.!!!! dorothy and the dark was already a pretty emotional last chapter, but in particular fiyeraba saying goodbye to glinda and elphaba reflecting on her relationship with fiyero to get through the dark were some i really appreciated and loved!
aside from that, i loved being able to notice how elphaba went from following the rules to playing by her own since it was written with a pretty clear distinction! despite it, you managed to still write her so in character and i applaud you for it! 😁
i was wondering, was it difficult for you to write each character through all of these emotions and emotional scenes? im super in awe of how well characterised they are, i can't lie my mind started mixing some of the musical and this fic together because of it how accurate it all is!!! 👏
EDIT: i was also wondering, which parallel in lfay is your favourite / was the most fun to write in?
PARALLELS:
i pride myself soo much in picking up on these! i planned to have screenshots of all of them, but unfortunatly because of the image limit ill just have to describe some 😔 nevertheless, i hope you like reading through this segment and id like to thank @mystic-oni for his much appreciated help in finding some of these!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i loved how this parallel really developed from the beginning of their relationship, with the bickering turning cute banter :) 💕
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i HAD to include this one, it is so so sweet and the parallels were all incorporated so well and warmed my heart ❤️❤️
along with these, there was also nessa making the same "you look dreadful" comment to elphaba at shiz and at kiamo ko, each in very different tones that made the second time very heartfelt :')
EXTRAS:
as well as parallels, i noted some a few references related to the book 🥳 i also noticed a few things that sounded similar but i wasn't sure were exactly parallels 🧐 but still wanted to include anyway... so here they are 😁!!! some captioned, some not but i hope you enjoy all!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i was super surprised at myself for initally not finding the lyrics snuck into the poem, but it was a pleasant surprise nonetheless!! also picked up on the mention of sarima from the book during chapter 14!
ANOTHER EDIT: another reference i got after watching wicked again was elphaba's book "discord and discontent" was mentioned by dr dillamond (can't recall in what way though 🥲)!
i noticed elphie celebrating in a similar way at going to shiz and getting into the sorcery seminar, she makes me so :))) SHE IS SO HOPEFUL AND DESERVES EVERYTHING!!!! i absolutely adore how you wrote her so excited and youthful during the act 1 chapters 🥺💕💕
Tumblr media Tumblr media
fiyero having the same reaction to elphaba's temper from two different "lives" 💞 i can't help but love this little detail! i also picked up on how fiyero jokes about seeing the present in chapter 20 in comparison to him being sincere about it in the epilogue! super super subtle but one of my favourites !! there was also when elphaba sarcastically suggested enjoying the ocean in ev to considering in the last chapter, i laughed when i first read it and i still do when i think about it :)))
EXTRAS
nearing the last few chapters, i maaayyyy have impulsively made a LFaY chapter naming quiz 😇 it is linked below, i hope you have fun with it!
FINAL REGARDS
overall, im so glad i took the time to read over this outstanding fic, i don't think i could ever get tired of your writing!! ❤️❤️ i look forward to seeing more of your work, and im very excited to hear that there may be new works coming!!!!! however long that takes, i can't wait to be here yet again in support! :)))

I feel like the conflict was a bit more interesting when the cat wasn't a villain. It gave an actual conflict to the plot because we felt that both jaune and the cat were victims. But now that he's an antagonist (Admittedly, one with a decently compelling motive of wanting to know why he was left behind), it kinda feels… Hollow, I guess? I'm not sure what word I'm looking for is, but "hollow" feels like the most appropriate until I can figure out what word I mean. I know that I'm not looking for "unearned" though.
I really liked the conflict he had with jaune because it made neither of them the bad guy, nor did it make either of them the good guy. But now with this conflict, it really feels like it's black and white. The heroic knight jaune is now in conflict with the trickster cat… The Cat.
Which, props for doing that with the cat's new color scheme, I guess (Kinda obvious that it's now a black and white morality story going on, but interesting symbolism nonetheless), but holy hell is it boring. The conflict could have been the world and how different it is from the story that they know and Neo's singleminded quest for revenge, not the cat's manipulative nature.
We went from "Neither knew what happened to Alyx and Lewis at the tree" to "The cat did that because of his singleminded drive of figuring out why his creators left him behind."
I feel like something that would have been more compelling would be "The Cat is the ONLY ONE NOT allowed to ascend to the tree." He's the historian. He's the one that keeps records of what happens. And maybe he wants to know what would happen if he were to ascend, but he's not allowed to. So instead of all that, he's looking for someone to take his place as the record keeper. The whole "I want someone else to take up this job so I can live the life I want to" is a motive that is hard to fail.
Maybe this volume is here to deconstruct simple but still singleminded motives? Because if so, then way to go writers. It took you about nine years to deconstruct Ruby's singleminded goal of "Become a Huntress to help people" all the way back from Volume 2, but you did it! Yay for you! You get one clapping emoji for that 👏.
Look: I'm aware that the show is very much built around subverting expectations and stuff, but right now, I think we're at the point where the subversions are expected. Taking away the nuance and the shades of grey that were present prior to this episode wasn't interesting, all it did was just sorta make the cat feel like one of Disney's twist villains. Just there to be a villain for the twist. For a show about subverting expectations, doing the whole "Knight vs. Trickster" archetypal rivalry feels like staying on-brand with expectations, rather than subverting them. Kinda feels weird complaining about staying true to expectations in the same paragraph that I said that it felt like not subverting the expectations felt more like the subversion though.
But other than that rant about the cat, I really did think the episode did good. Focusing on Ruby's insecurities and deconstructing Neo's motives was well-done (by RT standards), and even having the rest of team _WBY admit that they did make mistakes in not reaching out to Ruby and instead expecting her to reach out to them was a good choice considering the strange reactions (And lack thereof) they had when Ruby initially blew up at them. It's a pretty good reflection of real life too. People who are hurting on the inside very rarely reach out to others because they always feel like a burden. I know I've felt that way before. Wish they had a better trigger warning for it though.
And while openly admitting that Neo's goals devolved into "I want revenge on Ruby for what happened to Torchwick" and showing that revenge will only lead to being lost once it's been obtained is an interesting way to go about the character, it feels more like the writers forgot that Neo was a character. Admittedly, she was thrown in last-second, so I can somewhat forgive it, but it still feels weird. Kinda wish they had done the whole "Revenge will make you feel empty" thing with a certain other character coughcoughAdamcough, but this is pretty good too.
And the beatdown that Ruby suffered, while brutal, was a great way of deconstructing the common complaint that has been prevalent since Mantle. That being "Team RWBY ends up hurting more than helping." And, despite my pessimism in RT, I'm looking forward to where the question that lies goes onto. Because maybe we'll finally get some Summer Rose scraps.
I want to meet the woman who inspired Ruby and raised Yang, goddammit.

the urge to reread 1000x more times and comment on every single line of this part 😩 look what your writing has done to me…
buckle in for a long one ✈️
starting off real strong with a peek into felix’s backstory + his past with the each of boys. each paragraph dedicated to a stray kid made me feel so so much more for otde felix (which was already astronomically high). and the HYUNLIX. not to jump too forward but reading this and seeing the parallel and how hyunjin interacts w mc is so interesting and well written (not to mention felix’s view on being human and how it shapes who he is, AMAZINGLY written 👏 👏 )
AND THE TENSION? i could feel my own heart racing the way you wrote their escape from Hira’s, Yeonjun’s involvement, the scene with mc and the guards, EVERYTHINGGG god and i can’t wait for you to get into the connection between Hira and MCs mom 😭😭
— also felix constantly keeping mc by his side, barely ever letting go. yeah .
““Dude she has a name..” Jisung grumbled from beside you.” THATS BESTIE RIGHT THERE my jaw was literally clenched bc of the tension but this made me burst out in laughter 😭😭 i love love love jisung and mc together, literally my second fav duo besides lix/mc (although chan and mc 🥹)
— also so so interested in jisung’s past? i’m so curious who he lost my poor boy :(
“"You have a steady hand, y/n. You'd make a good medic."” i’m ngl i blushed a little 🥰 i love how the bond between mc and the boys is getting stronger with time + the jeongseung moment was so precious, genuinely am the MOST excited to see mc grow her bond with all 8 boys 🥹
“A pink blush crept up to his ears when he twisted around, glancing over his other shoulder to where the boys had piled into the rover a few feet away. “Yeah, right.." he stammered” DEBBY RYAN EAR TUCK IM SCREAMINGGGG their bond is just so precious 😭😭
and of course THE MIDNIGHT DIP ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). the passion between them is so apparent through your writing, i never thought you could top the last chapter but DAMN… i’m blown away. and i’m so glad they were able to take the time to realize how important they are to each other and communicate 😞 my babies are joking around tgt they’re all grown up !! i’m so excited for lix/mcs relationship to develop even more, lix already sees her as a possibility to love, i just need him to take it 🫠💔
MAN and speaking of, that last fucking line AS ALWAYS. literally cannot put into words how much i adore the last section of this chapter, it’s so heartwrenching and i’m already itching for the next chapter, how do you do this every time 😭
thank you do much for ANOTHER amazing piece, i hope you take the time to rest and take care of yourself 💞 the world you’ve built through this series is PHENOMENAL and i’ll never ever ever get over how amazing this is
president of the greedy coconut club 🫡 signing off!! i have so many unspoken praises for you and this fic i cant word correctly in my head and this is already so so long but thank you so much for taking the time to read through our messages anyway 🥹 i hope you have a wonderful day/night 💞💞 - 🍄
HI MY BELOVED🍄💕 ah can i just start by saying that you are truly the sweetest.😭😭 i got your ask around midnight last night (right before i went to bed) and when i read the first line it completely erased my lingering nerves about posting the new chapter, so from the bottom of my heart thank you so much for this.🥹 it means a lot to me, more than you probably realize.💕
lets dive into things, shall we?? i’m all buckled up and ready to go🚗 (i made mine a car instead of a plane bc i am terrified of flying lmao)
starting off real strong with a peek into felix’s backstory + his past with the each of boys. each paragraph dedicated to a stray kid made me feel so so much more for otde felix (which was already astronomically high). and the HYUNLIX. not to jump too forward but reading this and seeing the parallel and how hyunjin interacts w mc is so interesting and well written (not to mention felix’s view on being human and how it shapes who he is, AMAZINGLY written 👏 👏 )
OH. MY. GOD. THIS PART. THIS FUCKING PART. as fun as it was to write oh my lord did it drive me crazy. i swear i spent DAYS on this part alone.😭 it took ages for me to get it right, esp the hyunlix paragraphs (if only you could see the MESS it started out as lmao) i was so picky about it because their dynamic is something i’ve been so eager to explore, but i think i’m happy with how it turned out. and im really excited that you mentioned the parallel in how hyunjin interacts with mc.🤭 if there’s one thing i love in any type of media it’s a good parallel.🫠
honestly this whole beginning part ended up being one of if not my favorite parts of the chapter because lixs past and how he came to build relationships with each of the boys is such an important part of the story for me. so it makes me thrilled to hear that you enjoyed it.🥹 makes all that time and effort worth it, you know??💕
AND THE TENSION? i could feel my own heart racing the way you wrote their escape from Hira’s, Yeonjun’s involvement, the scene with mc and the guards, EVERYTHINGGG god and i can’t wait for you to get into the connection between Hira and MCs mom 😭
omg i’m so happy the tension and suspense came through for you in this scene.😭😭 i had such a fun time writing it (even though i put them through some major stress here lmao). and the connection between hira/mcs mom is also a storyline i’ve been excited to dive deeper into ever since hira was introduced last chapter, so i definitely can't wait to see what you think as it unfolds.🤭
also felix constantly keeping mc by his side, barely ever letting go. yeah .
lixs protectiveness towards mc is just..yeah..i could go on and on but just. yeah.🫠🫠
“Dude she has a name..” Jisung grumbled from beside you.” THATS BESTIE RIGHT THERE my jaw was literally clenched bc of the tension but this made me burst out in laughter 😭😭 love love love jisung and mc together, literally my second fav duo besides lix/mc (although chan and mc 🥹)
i had to tryyy to throw a little bit of comic relief into all that stress, i’m just so glad it actually made you laugh😂😭 it warms my heart to hear that you enjoy their interactions because i’m equally as excited about the mc/jisung duo.🤭 chan and mc too ahhdkejdfkek they have a unique connection that will definitely be explored more as the story progresses. her relationships with those two (and lix ofc) will be the death of me i swear. my beloved bias line</3
also so so interested in jisung’s past? i’m so curious who he lost my poor boy :(
aah jisung :( hes a complex character and his past is a bit of a mystery rn, but i promise there will be more revelations about his background later on…tbh ive got a whole storyline for him floating around in my head that ive thought about making into a separate one shot some day but im probably getting ahead of myself there..
“You have a steady hand, y/n. You'd make a good medic."” i’m ngl i blushed a little 🥰 i love how the bond between mc and the boys is getting stronger with time + the jeongseung moment was so precious, genuinely am the MOST excited to see mc grow her bond with all 8 boys 🥹
id be lying if i said i wasn't feeling a certain type of way about minho when i wrote this chapter lol.🫠 the slow build up between mc and each of the boys really has been one of the most rewarding parts of writing this story so far. in tv shows/movies i always find myself drawn to strong platonic relationships/friendships (even more than romantic connections a lot of the time) so i think that’s why it means so much to me that you say you’re most excited for her bond to grow with all 8.💕
“A pink blush crept up to his ears when he twisted around, glancing over his other shoulder to where the boys had piled into the rover a few feet away. “Yeah, right.." he stammered” DEBBY RYAN EAR TUCK IM SCREAMINGGGG their bond is just so precious 😭😭
“DEBBY RYAN EAR TUCK” OH MY GOD SAME.😂😭 i LOVE the idea of otde felix getting all flustered in front of the rest of the boys when it comes to mc.🫠 literally obsessed.
and of course THE MIDNIGHT DIP ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)...
THE MIDNIGHT DIP. 💀💀LMAO I CACKLED. this is the only way i will be referring to this scene from now on. if there was a scene i struggled with more than the beginning then it was definitely this one. i spent the majority of this past week (or two) focusing on this part alone because (along with the fact that i wanted it to be a pivotal moment in their relationship) writing intimate smut scenes like this is such a hurdle for me, and ive certainly doubted my ability to convey the passion that i envision between lix/mc so its really reassuring to know that the time and effort i put into these moments makes a difference for you.🥹💕it makes me excited to keep pushing my boundaries so that i can continue to include scenes like this moving forward.<33
MAN and speaking of, that last fucking line AS ALWAYS. literally cannot put into words how much i adore the last section of this chapter, it’s so heartwrenching and i’m already itching for the next chapter, how do you do this every time 😭
you are too kind.😭😭💕 writing those final moments is always always one of my favorite parts about every chapter and it makes me so happy to know that this one resonated with you just as much as it did with me, even if it was a bit heart wrenching.🥹
president of the greedy coconut club 🫡 signing off!!
yeah so basically..this whole last part of your ask turned me into a sobbing mess.😭 actual tears.😭 thank you once again from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to share your thoughts and reactions president🫡 i am flattered and BEYOND grateful that you have allowed my little story to reach you in this way. your feedback is invaluable, it’s always wonderful to hear from you, and ill never get over that either. your words mean a lot to me, and i’m truly touched by your dedication to this story.
don’t forget to rest and take care of yourself too, okay??sending all the love in the world your way my🍄💕 and i hope you know that my askbox is always open for you, even if you just want to come say hi.🤗💕

*Stalky fanperson word vomit incoming - you have been warned*
Firstly, I wanna say that I never, ever want to have to wait that long for an update every again. However, I also wanna say that this chapter was so freaking perfect that I’m really glad we had to! 😄 (I actually even managed to make it worse for myself by holding off reading it until I was certain I could give every one of the 18k words the time and attention it deserved, and I’m really glad I did - it’s utterly glorious!! 🥹) Congratulations on your summer-long work coming to an outstanding conclusion 👏👏👏
I wanted to do that thing that people do where they share their favourite sections, but I’m not even kidding when I say that if I did that I’d literally be copy and pasting the entire thing. Every. single. paragraph is literal poetry, art and/or a story in and of itself. You are a linguistic maestro, and I now have a new life goal of producing even just one line that comes even close to painting a picture like yours do (that’s the stalkery bit - I’m aware that this probably sounds a bit creepy 😬😬😆)
Also: me, before reading: OMGthey’regoingtokissOMGthey’regoingtokissOMGthey’regoingtokiss 🥹😃🥹😃🥹😃
Me, after reading: Ican’tbelievetheykissedIcan’tbelievetheykissedIcan’tbelievetheykissed 😱😱😱🤯🤯🤯
I still can’t quite believe they actually kissed, even though we all knew it was gonna happen. I thought maybe at some point one of them (r, most likely) would pull back and it would end as a heavy, emotionally loaded cuddle, or some touching, but damn, they actually crossed that line!!! I can’t wait to see how this affects things in the outside world from now on.
And the longing... The yearning... Ugh, it’s all so perfect! I don’t usually warm to these parts of a story, and even though they’re often necessary and essential I just want it to be over, but with these two? I’m a total convert.
I’m also seriously wondering how many other people have noticed or suspected what’s going on. We haven’t seen them from anyone else’s perspective yet, and by the reaction of the band, and those bits with Bill, I’m now concerned that they haven’t actually been as subtle as they/we think they have been, and it’s all gonna hit the fan realllllll sooooon…
(Plus, is Bill gonna be a problem? I said: is Bill gonna be a problem ? *raises one eyebrow and drops a closed fist into an open palm*)
I LOVE the being good/bad for each other internal battles that they’ve both got going on, it’s exquisite and so beautifully balanced, and adds a really special layer to both characters as well as the overall story.
Oh, and the song choices?!?! Puh-leeeeeze, SO PERFECT!!! 🥹🥹🥹🤩🤩🤩🥵🥵🥵 And Eddie on stage, singing, without his guitar?? I’ve never seen that done before, and it was exquisite!! 🙏🔥🙏🔥🙏🔥
IDK if you do a tag list, but if you do I’d love to be on it (and for anything else Eddie you write 😄). My brain is vibrating with both anticipation for the next part, and anxiety at the even slight suggestion that I might miss something 😵‍💫
Finally, I VISCERALLY AND BODILY **NEED** EDDIE’S TEETH ON MY NECK RIGHT TF NOW, so thank you for that… 🫠🫠🫠
‘K I think I’m done, thanks, bye 😆
Holy shit thank you SO much 🥹🥹🥹
It’s heartwarming to see my hard work so appreciated. I feel like “linguistic maestro” might be one of the highest compliments I’ve received so far. I’m incredibly flattered.
Our forbidden lovebirds have a lot of internal and external conflict weighing against them, and I am excited to explore this new phase of their relationship next chapter. As you can sense from the very last scene, they are on different pages when it comes to their attitudes about it. One has a whole lot more to lose than the other, and a whole lot more baggage when it comes to trust and relationships.
Part of what makes this so thrilling imo IS how dangerous it is. You bring up a good point with his friends and outside witnesses like Bill. You’ll certainly be getting hints of how they interpreted that night and what they think about the two of them in general as the story progresses.
I admittedly need to spend some time sitting down with my outline, as I am discovering that I might want to spend just a liiiitle more time (like one more chapter) exploring this limbo phase than originally planned. It’s so juicy being here, finally. The next phase will be even juicier ;)
I had closed my taglist for some time but I recently decided to open it back up and will add you. Thank you, again, so very much. 💕
